    How do I disable the Game Explorer? I can understand why some people might like this feature, but for those of us who don’t and want the traditional shortcuts installed, how do we get around it? The Game Explorer doesn’t show nearly all the options for some games that are included with the Shortcuts on an XP desktop (and yes, they are newer games).
